 Today, I did something out of the ordinary and it really made life fun and interesting! I met someone with whom I had only spoken online!! On the Mary Jane Butters’ forums, women from across the world talk Farmgirl talk and share ideas, recipes, sorrows and joys. It is a wonderful community of wonderful women.  And so, another Oklahoma Farmgirl, through the forums, connected with me and we finally decided to meet. The Inspirations Tea Room, in Edmond, Oklahoma, seemed the perfect place to do that. It is a step back into the quieter and more genteel days of the Victorian age where one is pampered to the max. Fresh strawberry/banana scones, drizzled in a glaze icing alongside creamy, lemon curd started the meal, followed by our choices of hot tea and a meal fit for a queen. We learned so much about each other and found that we have tons in common. And we are both still old Girl Scouts at heart! All in all, it was a wonderful lunch and time spent together. I now have a new friend and look forward to more time spent in Farmgirl pursuits! Thanks for a neat day, Marsha! I’m humming that old Girl Scout song: But keep the old – One is silver and the other gold ♪♪ |

How fun that you two got to get together! 🙂
Mary Beth, you are a sweetheart! Thank you for the goodie bag; I found even more fun things in the sack when I got home; and hubbie wants to steal them! And after all that worry about getting to my class on time–the place was locked up, no one there! Can you believe it? I got there right on time and was thanking my lucky stars for having such a fun time with you at the TeaHouse and making it to Paseo with perfect timing, and the darn door wasn’t even open! Oh well, have to laugh about it. Actually I hope nothing is wrong.
So I can’t wait to get a meeting going and maybe the other Farmgirls can make it.
Big hug Sista!
Glad you liked the “stuff” and hope that you can share it with your hubby! 🙂 It was fun.
Wow. Locked, huh? We could have gone ahead and eaten the dessert instead of boxing it! 🙂 Looking forward to a next time.
